$AdminTask BPMInstallOfflinePackage {-inputFile /ibm/snapshot1.zip}
By the way, I got several errors of SOAP timeout during Step 3.
For their solving you need to increase this timeout in <DM_profile_folder>/properties/soap.client.props

Once the snapshot is created using BPMCreateOfflinePackage, I am not able to create again for the same snapshot. I believe Process center keeps a copy somewhere in its installation path. Could you please advise where that file would be originally created by websphere when we issue BPMCreateOfflinePackage?

The 1st step (BPMCreateOfflinePackage) does not create any files.It do the same as you select a snapshot in Process Center, click "Install" and select some off-line Process Server. After that you see the notice that this snapshot was installed to PS.

Then you need to execute BPMExtractOfflinePackage. The package file will be created in the folder on the server you pointed.

I have created process application with a simple BPD in which there is one coach (Human Task) from Process Designer and created a snapshot as well. Now I want to deploy it into the Process Server (in another machine) not a Process Center Server i.e. installed locally. Now my question is if I successfully deploy it by given the steps above. then where I can access the Human Task (Coach) within Process Server ? Which URL will provide the Human task ? As I can see in the Process Portal of Process Server there is no Coach available. How can I access it?

When you create your BPD - you must set the option "Expose to start" (Overview tab).You must set the team which can start this BPD as process instance.This team will be a part of your Process Application.So after deploying your PA on remote Process Server you will be able to add your existing groups or users from PS to the team. Then you will be able to see the link for running the BPD on Process Portal.Or the simpliest way - set "Expose to Start" for All Users team.
